Course Description:
In the development and commercialization of biopharmaceutical products, historically most of the R&D and GMP attention has been focused on the manufacturing process and production facility. However, there has always been a vital role for the ‘other half’ of the equation: analytical testing and laboratory operations.
The global emergence of biosimilar products – where significant attention is given to analytical characterization and comparability – has turned a brighter spotlight on the analytics. It is expected that rationale for the design and execution of analytical studies, the selection of and validation of appropriate method technologies, the assessment of drug substance and drug product stability, and the establishment of meaningful, supportable specifications will be justified in regulatory dossiers.
This two day interactive course on CMC requirements for biopharmaceutical products will focus on the types of analytical CMC studies that are critical to the successful review and approval of product IND/IMPD and BLA/MAA filings. It will also discuss the vital role of laboratory quality systems in assuring the reliability and integrity of the data generated to demonstrate product comparability, quality and stability.
